Once we can pre-order, it's just one step closer.
Then the next wave of threads will be, "DID YOUR IPHONE SHOW UP AT YOUR FRONT DOOR YET??" or "JUST SAW THE FEDEX TRUCK BUT IT WASN'T FOR ME!"

Apple is soon going to launch in 88 countries. That's an indication of how large their supply is.
True nerds LOVE this sort of thing. It's like an adrenaline rush. We get all excited & can barely function.

Oh man, Fed Ex truck, don't remind me! It's like a slow torture... 9 more days!!
Great thread, so true. Some people are taking things awfully seriously.
In another thread here the chaos & venom is spewing in an argument about iPhone vs Android.
My, my, it's only a phone...

Is that the HTC Evo thread? Or a different one?
I think they might run out fairly soon on the pre-orders.
One, the iPad hasn't been out that long and Apple may have figured ok, not everyone can spring for an iPad and an iPhone practically back to back, so they would have gone for the iPad, probably. Two, we are still in a recession in the States, even if recovery is supposedly underway.
So maybe the initial press run on iPhones will have been conservative this time out. But then surprise surprise, when everyone wants to pre-order one after all, and BLAM, two days into the pre-order, they're looking at no way to deliver the goods?!
Oh well. That would be a lot better than throwing a party for two million people and finding out only ten thousand are showing up.

BUT ... but ... BUT MAYBE NOT!
I really wish there were ways of hiding entire threads from view ....
You're not sufficiently tied into the Apple News Network

Yes...just an endless cycle.
